I'm sorry that I'm not doing my regular weekly dinner menu post, but this considered a vacation week, so I'm kind of taking a vacation from cooking (until Thanksgiving that is). I'm also in the process of moving my site over to Wordpress, so I'm going to...

Ok, I must admit, I'm not a holiday recipe kind of food blogger. I don’t feature holiday recipes months before the holidays, unless it’s a recipe that can be used for any occasion, like this salad. I’m honestly not an expert when it comes to cooking turkey...

Ok, I'll be frank with you all, this isn't the most exciting post I have ever put out there. As I was writing it, I kind of yawned a few times and thought to myself, am I really writing about how to keep lettuce and kale fresh, really? I'm writing this...

Happy Memorial Day everyone, and Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband, John! The kids and I love that John's birthday falls on a Holiday weekend because we always get to spend a full day celebrating with him. Zoe and I made his favorite coconut cake (recipe...

Guess where I'm headed today on the kids' first official day of summer? Six flags Discovery Kingdom. I know, scary, but it's on the kids' summer bucket list, and Eli has been literally begging to go for weeks (I mean it's all he talks about). Secretly,...

ISO: 400 A: f/1.4 S: 1/160 We're getting creative with food lately in the Grandy household, as I don't want to be dragging the kids to the grocery store every day (I mean it is summer, come on). So, I find myself scrounging the pantry and fridge for some...

When the days get warmer and the nights get longer, I start craving summer foods like burgers, grilled chicken and big salads, don't you? Pastas and soups still come out on occasion, but I tend to ease back on them a bit more this time of year. I'll be...

Happy Birthday Zoe! My daughter Zoe turns 12 today :) I honestly can't believe how fast the years have gone by. It seems like only yesterday that we brought her home from the hospital, and now she is 12! Goodness gracious! For those of you with little ones,...

Last week was so much fun! I received so many positive emails, phone calls & comments from friends and people in my local and not-so-local community regarding my article in the Marin IJ. It was wonderful to interact with everyone and hear what their favorite...

I know this photo is not quote on quote "food porn" quality or pinterest worthy, but I guarantee it's tastebud worthy . It's so tastebud worthy that I was literally licking the bowl after this salad. I never thought I would be licking the bowl of a kale...

Am I turning into a health nut or what? I have eaten more kale in the past 6 months than I have in my whole lifetime, seriously. This blog is working wonders for my health and waistline (as well as my hubby's). It was actually John that picked out this...
